Undergraduate: Claremont McKenna College
Medical School: St. Louis University School of Medicine (AOA)

Chase was born and raised in Salt Lake City, UT, then moved to southern California to attend Claremont McKenna College, where he majored in Biology. In college, he discovered a passion for research in a basic science lab, and even considered teaching higher education science. However, his experiences volunteering with cancer patients at City of Hope helped push him into applying to medical school, as he preferred the personal, intimate interactions with patients over the sterility and objectiveness of a basic science lab. Once in medical school at St. Louis University, he continued to pursue research and service. He was accepted into the Rodney M. Coe Service and Advocacy Program, a community service distinction for graduates of SLU, with the majority of his time spent at a local juvenile detention center improving quality of care and follow up for children incarcerated with mental diagnoses. In medical school, he also discovered a passion for medical education, leading several talks to lower classes in topics from test-taking skills to physical exam maneuvers. And while he enjoyed a wide variety of specialties, he ultimately decided to split the difference between his parents (a PICU doctor and a school psychologist) and pursue Triple Board training.
Chase is particularly interested in diagnoses that blur the line between medicine and psychiatry, such as headaches, functional abdominal pain, and catatonia, but also has a passion for working within the criminal justice system, clinically and as an advocate. Outside of medicine, he loves all sports (esp. baseball!), the beach, and listening to Ariana Grande. He is eager to explore Rhode Island, and has plans to try every restaurant in Providence by the end of his 5 years.
